Effect of Hurricane Katrina on New Orleans
User:69.171.53.72 had nothing to do with this. I was attempting to remove the vandalism. Get your FACTS straight before you accuse someone. The logs will show that in fact I deleted the offending image link as soon as I saw it. User:69.171.53.72.
 * Grabbed the wrong IP address — the history can change several times a minute, mistakes happen. Sorry. Get over it. Deadsalmon 20:53, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

User:69.171.53.72 and User:69.133.122.102 have posted the same explicit image on this page. Deadsalmon 20:22, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Ehhh... actually it's been quite a few sockpuppets. Given the constant edits turning this page into a blog rather than a WP article, perhaps it wouldn't be bad to lock it for a while? Deadsalmon 20:27, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

User:65.101.135.244 has vandalized four times, low severity. Deadsalmon 06:03, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

User:209.66.200.65 was very persistant in vandalizing this page. Evil Monkey was kind enough to block the ip for me, but someone should watch this page if the ip changes or comes back. Thanks! --best, kevin · · · Kzollman | Talk ·· · 21:55, September 1, 2005 (UTC)

Some background. Sheffield in the UK has two football (soccer) teams, Sheffield United F.C. and Sheffield Wednesday F.C., known as "the Blades" and "the Owls" respectively. Neil Warnock is the manager of Sheffield Wednesday United. This childishness is the WP version of football hooliganism. Tonywalton | Talk 16:59, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Ahem. Of course I meant United. They all look the same to me. Tonywalton [[Image:Pentacle_1.svg|15px]] | Talk 17:29, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

List of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends episodes
A complete banishment for the following would be nice: They have posted fictional episodes of the Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends series on the page (and the primary page as well prior to the episode list being created.) I noted that only episodes that have been authorized by Cartoon Network and/or another source (such as tvguide.com) are to be posted, and if they even thought about it, they'd be put on report.

Snoop Dogg, Bow Wow, and Green Day
User (or IP address ) continuously adds linkspam to these three pages, which he admits at Talk:Snoop Dogg are to his own website wit hthe express purpose of increasing his traffic so as to being in more money from his Google ads. In addition, user broke three-revert rule in attempts to keep his links listed. User currently has stopped re-adding links, and is not aware what he is doing is vandalism. If linkspam appears again on any of the three pages or any other music related page, user should be blocked. --FuriousFreddy 08:54, 28 August 2005 (UTC)
 * 1)FuriousFreddy added this passage here without following the rules. I never added a link to another page following his "warning", yet he is accusing me of being a repeat offender, which I am not. 2) Placing the links from my own site is not unsupported by any policy that I'm aware of...only by some "guideline". See Talk:Snoop Dogg for more info. Also no true definition of "link spam" exists and the one in Wikipedia is ill-defined. 3)I never expressed my purpose in the false way that he insinuates.  My purpose was to provide value for value, not to be self-serving.   Drdr1989.


 * It's true that the principle against linking to one's own sites is a guideline rather than a firm rule; it's sometimes possible to put in links to your own site and "get away with it", if the site is clearly more of a relevant informational resource than an attempt at commercial gain or personal vanity for the site creator. However, if the site has a "spammy"-looking URL like download-latest-online-music.com, and/or is full of ads and referral links in positions more prominent than any original content the site might have, and/or is being posted by the site creator to multiple Wikipedia articles, it is likely to be seen as "link spam", even if the link is at least partially relevant.  If this happens, and the link gets reverted, it's definitely bad form to get into a revert-war over attempting to keep your link in place; that really makes you look like a disruptive spammer.  If you truly think your link is worthy, make a case for it in the talk page and possibly other fans of your site will come in and reinstate the link themselves.  I'll add that the creation of multiple "cookie-cutter" pages on various celebrities (in music, movies, TV, etc.), with a few bits of biographical info or trivia cribbed from other sites, maybe a picture or two also taken from another site, and loads of ads and affiliate links, is a popular pursuit of link-spammers these days, and their sites are always less worthy of links than genuine "labor-of-love" fan sites  from people who actually care about the celebrity they're doing a site about. *Dan* 20:07, August 28, 2005 (UTC)
 * Hey Dan. I'm not trying to fight my way up from a deep hole. It is just that their rationale for link removal was originally unclear, and FF's steps to "warn" sound more like a true war than advice from the heart.  Even though his intentions were probably good, with wars you must defend yourself.  As for the URL, it may appear "spammy" to someone not interested in the subject.  With that, the title was constructed relative to what people want, actually.  I'll keep in mind, however, your advice, even though those pages have much more content than ads and aff links.  Although, I think you would agree that if you saw other sites listed on Snoop and Green Day, esp., that they look more "spammy" than mine. drdr1989  P.S., the labor-of-love aspect is in the developing stagizzle (Snoop pun).
 * If you see other links that appear to be "spammy", you are encouraged to remove them too (so long as you explain why they are inappropriate). --Alan Au 07:14, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Great point. I actually have removed some already off Snoop Dogg. The remaining ones do appear to reach the validity threshold however, even if they do look more "spammy".  drdr1989 16:50, Aug 29, 2005

Multiple Vandalism about Chinese
   
 * I think may be one of his earlier accounts. Biscuit Krumonski is vandalizing China-related articles for the following reason:


 * Why am I doing vandalism? Because communism sucks. The people of China should have the following freedoms: Freedom of speech. Freedom of religeon Freedom of the press. No forced sterilizations. No cruel and unusual punshiment.


 * p.s. I like Hong Kong, and purposely have not vandalised any Hong Kong related articles. (Biscuit Krumonski posted this on someone's talk page(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Cpcheung)) --Hottentot

I'm not sure if this is really vandalism, or if somebody just wants to engage me in a edit/revert war over the above article. Somebody (or some people; I'm assuming the former) in the IP address range 151.44.*.* keeps adding false accusations against Scott Jarkoff (founder of deviantART) and nonsense to the page; repeated requests on talk page, as well as reminder-comment on top of page and all affected sections have been completely ignored and even mocked at. Request for protection of the above article is already up, person(s) have been warned on the 151.44.123.254 talk page (his current IP address).

 * Commenting on this user's flagrant link spamming and plagiarism on relevant talk pages is neither vandalizing nor libelous. It is an attempt to call attention to these problems. The decision to remove more than 60 Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew links that this user created to his web site was reached by concensus. This complaint is an attempt to get revenge because I called attention to his link spamming. 69.205.1.91 02:31, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

 * It's a school IP, this is hardly surprising. Blocking IPs indefinitely is generally not done though; Considering the fact that there may be great contributors at that school logging in with usernames and thus not showing up in that list of contributions, and that this is our chance to introduce tomorrow's good editors to wikipedia, I think short blocks to stop immediate vandalism are our best choice. --fvw *  22:32, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

 * Correct. This is not vandalism. No unreasonable edits to content are being made. The link spamming issue is obvious. User:205.188.117.10 12:02, 2005 August 23
 * Actually, it's not. I'm not the only person to revert the blanking this user is doing - other registered users have agreed that the links in question are acceptable. However, it is pointless to continue reverting his edits. I'll stop in the belief that this user should be blocked. A community agreed revert can then take place Hardy Boys link discussion. --PhilipO 22:28, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
 * No, the links are being blindly restored despite a obvious problem with link spamming. User:205.188.117.10 12:04, 2005 August 23

 * On the contrary it does not. The decent thing is to stop the link spamming and plagiarism. User:205.188.117.10 12:55, 2005 August 23
 * I honestly have little or no opinion on the merits of the links themselves. OTOH, what I see is one person who is carrying on a personal vendeta, and violating multiple Wikipedia rules to do so (3RR, jumping IPs to avoid blocks, to name two).  You may very well have a point about plagerism and link-spam.  But the way you are going about this will not get the result you want.  Your tactics are pulling in more and more editors to oppose you.  Whether you originally had a valid point or not, vandalism tactics make you no better than the person you are ultimately against, and will ultiately be futile. There are ways to fight your fight here on Wikipedia that will not raise large numbers of people against you.  The Talk pages of one or two of the HB articles is the place to take your fight.  Wikipedia is about conscensous, and right now the conscensous is building against *you*.  If you would, however, come discuss your problems with these links, you might find you can build conscensous for removal.  But vandal tactics will never get you that. TexasAndroid 18:09, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Tried that. The links still just get put back blindly like you were doing without checking out or admitting the problem which is way obvious. Vandalism would be mean spirited removal of content which I don't do. Finnan is a link spammer and shameless plagiarist is trying to sell books by abusing his Wiki priviledges. When people really look at this they will agree, fix the problem and this will stop. User:205.188.117.10 13:16, 2005 August 23
 * I admit to being "blind" on the links themselves. However, I am far from blind to wiki policies and rules, and can easily see your total disregard for them.  As long as that is the case, your "contributions" have little weight in my eyes.  My restoring of the links was a judgement of your actions, not of the quality of the links.  I don't know enough about HB to make a value judgement on the links.  I do know enough about Wiki to make a value judgement on your removals, and find them lacking in credibility.  (Because of your total disreguard for Wiki rules, and your tactics)
 * Could you point to which Talk page you did try to reason/persuade people that the links are bad? I would like to see what arguments/evidence you presented, and why it was not persuasive. TexasAndroid 18:32, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Unless you create an account, and discuss your changes responsibly, you don't appear to be acting in good faith. Comments such as "It will continue indefinitely until the problem of Finnan's link spamming and plagiarism are fixed" do not sit well with editors here. --PhilipO 18:27, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

This user is a Red Sox fan who has continually tried to remove NPOV passages from the Manny Ramírez article, despite being reverted numerous times by three different users (myself, User:Brian Brockmeyer, and 24.186.219.123).

 * editorial vandalism to Perl. User has been told several times that linking to his home page to advance his criticisms of perl is self-promotion, as other editors view his site as non-notable polemics that, if anything, ought to be incorporated into the article under wikipedia's collaborative process. User appears to be criticsing article content not by arguing about how to improve the article's critical treatment of the subject but by changing section "Cons" to "and more Pro" (implying that legitimate criticism, i.e. his own external remarks, is being suppressed; see here, his reply occasioned a [|Wikiquette alert]). I believe this incident is vandalism in that it appears to be calculated disruption by gaming the system, but I am acknowledging up front that this may be debatable. It may that, as it is debatable, it out to be made an RfC rather than part of the vandalism process. Put warning on user's page. Buffyg 15:17, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Monicasdude (talk • contribs • block) Page Bob Dylan.

Please note that user: Lulu's vandalism complaint was summarily rejected as an inappropriate characterization of a content dispute, and that he unilaterally overrode admin action to reinstate it. Monicasdude 17:16, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

User:Fvw suggests this is a content dispute, but I think that is not quite right. User:Monicasdude tries to disguise his changes/reverts as factual or NPOV disputes, but in fact simply reverts all changes to whatever he himself wrote, independent of any fact or POV. The vandalism is in removing any words he does not himself write from appearing (admittedly the words he does write are more-or-less topical, rather than unrelated to the page). Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 18:58, 2005 August 23 (UTC) (Of course, if another ViP editor thinks I'm wrong, I will not try to file this here again)
 * This notice is placed in bad faith. It is factually inaccurate. The underlying dispute was identified as a content dispute last week in a discussion of the 3RR notice board by admin: Gamaliel, who said "The core of the issue here is the factual accuracy of the statement in question. Based solely on what has been said here, it seems Monicasdude has factual information to back up his version. Lulu, if you have citations to back up your version or to dispute Monicasdude's version, please produce them on Talk:Bob Dylan." User: Lulu did not back up his version with factual citations, but instead posted a few quotations of opinions.
 * The context for the dispute is this: User: Lulu demands that the Bob Dylan article reflect his opinion that Dylan had a short-lived "Christian period," and that before and after that time his work has shown no more than scattered and oblique religious themes. This is no more than an opinion, and it is not even the majority opinion among Dylan observers. My position is that if the article addresses this question -- and I do not think it necessary for an article to pigeonhole any artist's work into sharply defined periods carrying superficial labels -- it should reflect the full range of opinions on the question. User:Lulu has repeatedly excised any opinion which he does not share, and has gone so far as to delete other editors' contributions regarding religious influences on other periods of Dylan's work.  Bob Dylan has consistently written, released and performed religiously-themed material for the last twenty-five years. To insist, as user:Lulu has been doing in this ongoing dispute, that "the fact that Dylan stopped doing explicitly xtian stuff is definitely worth noting at the conclusion of the discussion of his xtian period" is to falsify a well-documented history.
 * And I would also note that user:Lulu has repeatedly and indisputably violated the 3RR rule in the course of this dispute (a violation for which he has been previously blocked twice), and that he engages in repeated, incessant personal abuse, including repeated objectively false statements, like the comment here that I revert all changes to my own versions and remove any words I have not written. This situation calls out for enforcement of the applicable guidelines. Monicasdude 20:39, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
 * My gut reaction is that this is a content dispute, by Lulu's own description. Vandalism is bad-faith editing. Maybe Monicasdude is making bad edits, but that is different from bad-faith editing. I'll look into this a bit more. --Ryan Delaney talk 17:25, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

 * SmarterChild3 (talk • contribs • block) -- moved Seth Morales (currently on VfD) to 4395682439564395643956 a nonsensical title for the content. The move broke the link on the VfD page. DES (talk) 05:28, 25 August 2005 (UTC)


 * made an edit to Case Western Reserve University that consisted of an insult to the women students there, and did something similar on the Bluegrass music page. Then he engaged in sneaky vandalism on the Tanggula Mountain Pass and Qingzang Railway articles. Mamawrites 04:28, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * is vandalizing Karen Lancaume in tandem with an anon user (reported above) Sunray 06:40, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
 * -- I noticed this user placed vfd tags on 9 articles without posting discussion to the talk pages or contribution to the article pages. I checked because I had reverted a vfd on Britney Spears by this user and posted a comment on the user's talk page. The other articles are smaller and I left the vfd's. I can't tell if this user is serious but I doubt it after the Spears page. -- Sitearm | Talk 15:10, 2005 August 21 (UTC)


 * has violated 3rr on the Elvis Presley page. He also disrespects broad concensus from the article's editors about the removal David Bret as a credible source (129.241.134.241 17:05, 20 August 2005 (UTC))


 * -- Recent list of contributions Special:Contributions/Jefu shows a multitude of redirects making double or triple redirect. That editor coould very well redirect to addresses where the aticle is, not causing triple... Is this vandalism? or POV? or what? 217.140.193.123 16:14, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

 * has created some pretty puerile articles. (He has also gone on to vandalize the Current events page.) Seanadams 02:06, 17 August 2005 (UTC)


 * User:RobotE, my bot, has messed up several (too many to revert by hand) of the Category:year pages. You can find them here. From 19:46, 18 August 2005 to 20:54, 18 August 2005. Can an administrator please revert these edits, my sincere apologies, I was not aware of your system with a template. By request of one of your users, I did an interwiki run on the categories. Ellywa 21:09, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
 * I think I rolled back them all. Check if I missed any. --cesarb 21:42, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

All targeted Jim Duffy (author) page to add in same allegation that I am the person the page is about with edit summaries It's a warning, not a self-reference. and Warning of shameless self-manipulation and ''Useful to know so as to watch for shameless self-promotion. *Keep*.'' respectively. Also targeting Dublin statues and their nicknames. Ubuntu also reimposed a poor quality gif of unknown copyright status after it had been reverted to the correct image and reinserted original research that, as original research I had deleted. Sockpuppets probably of banned user User:Skyring who was banned for Wikistalking me. All the targets above, as was Skyring's history, focused all their edits on pages I had just recently edited, added in dodgy information, stuff of dubious copyright information (or changed UK dating in a UK article to US dating &mdash; another of Skyring's 'games') the behaviour that led the ArbComm to ban Skyring for 1 year. <font color="#006666">Fear <font color="#FF6600">ÉIREANN \<sup style="color:blue;">(caint) 23:05, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Watch this one
I've spotted some repetitive vandalism from User:148.235.180.242 in the last 24 hours. So far I've reverted everything, but he needs watching. 62.252.96.16 15:32, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

I've spotted some repetitive vandalism from User:70.162.11.141 (also as User:70.162.14.37) in the last 48 hours. The same is true for User:143.166.82.38. So far I've reverted everything, but they need watching. Liontamer 06:15, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Vandalism in long progress
A few weeks ago a Macedonian Slav editor started objecting about the contents of the article Macedonia. An editor (not familiar with the topic) put the article under protection and urged the editors to resolve the dispute in Talk. So it happened. During the discussion, the objecting party would post POV propaganda as evidence for his claims and would throw out personal insults and racist implications (as in degrading degrading darker-skinned people). The situation was so childish that another administrator was summoned in order to unprotect the page and restore the original article. It's been a several weeks since this happened, but the case was far from closed. The objecting party couldn't accept the facts and kept reverting the page 50 times per day, hoping that someone will be bored and give in to his vandalism. This has been going on for over a week and continues as we speak, and none of the admins has bothered to do anything to stop it. Miskin 13:46, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

User Imdaking is vandalizing my talk page.
Imdaking (talk • contribs • block) This user has just deleted a lot of content from my talk page, content which documents his abuse and harrassment using several identities.

50 cent
50_Cent - this page is being vandalised by 12.72.255.138 and 67.183.49.205. I'm about to place warnings on their user pages, but not sure if it will do much good.--inks 09:14, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

That article some kind of virus edits endlessly (too hard to revert). May be it should be blocked? Brandmeister 22:09, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Macedonian Slavs
The anonymous user 198.176.19.40, erased a complete section of the Talk:Macedonian Slavs and replaced it with his comment. Probably this was not done intentionally, but I couldn't copy-paste all the comments he deleted. I hope that an admin can rollback the page and the paste the comment of the anonymous user at the buttom in a new section. Thanks. MATIA 13:53, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
 * I've done a copy/revert/paste/save on this page which should fix it, I'll add to point to here for any confusion later. Alf 14:07, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you Alf. MATIA 14:32, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Car
The page "Car" has been vandalized. It redirects to "Automobile" and adds nasty pictures during the redirect, but if you load the page "Automobile" none of the 2 pictures are there. I also checked out editing the page "Car" and no images were there, so I'm not good at wikipedia and I don't know how the pictures get there to remove them.
 * Not quite sure what you mean. Automobile looks ok to me, and it's common to redirect synonyms to one place. The images don't seem to be 'nasty'; did something unpleasant turn up on your screen while you were being redirected? Car has been a redirect for several months, now.-Splash 01:02, 30 August 2005 (UTC)


 * A vandal (199.72.198.46) made a redirect link to gluteus maximus and reverted in one minute. This may explain it... --Janke | Talk 08:48:46, 2005-08-30 (UTC)

macedonia related articles, again
User continues to change part of wikis without discussing his changes, or having in mind what discussions were or are being made in the talk pages. MATIA 15:45, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Someone should also check this move (irrelevant with Via Egnatia). MATIA 15:48, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

User marches on, despite warnings and despite of being ask to use the talk pages. Perhaps he should be checked if he is a sockpuppet of and his anonymous vandals (see WP:AN/I archive 41) , and MATIA 23:32, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanatos Article--There is an image added that screws up the whole layout of the page, whereas before it was nice. Now the image is really big and moves the text far below it. I am an ultra-newb and I don't know what to do or who to contact, and I'm to afraid to edit it myself. Maybe someone could look into it? Thanks, dblot=aim if anyone wants to un-newb me.
